Trouble brewing in Jordan
No violence yet but protests against King Abdullah of Jordan are growing and getting more heated (although contained to a few towns at the present). Jordan doesn't have the financial resources to buy off everyone; their SOP has been to buy off key tribal leaders, imans and so forth and keep a loyal security force in good working order. But the region is boiling with Islamism, arabism, palestinian nationalism and various other streams of anger. Posted by: Lord Garth 2011-11-23 |
